User Reviews

Users praise Night Owl Protect for sharp video quality, solid setup, and strong remote viewing, helpful for homes and small businesses. However, the app’s instability, confusing navigation, and notifications drawbacks; hardware durability issues; and inconsistent motion detection significantly detract from the experience. Addressing app stability, UI simplification, and hardware reliability would improve overall satisfaction.
Pros
  • Excellent video resolution and camera coverage.
  • Easy setup with streamlined documentation and app.
  • Fast start-up and reliable remote access.
  • Reliable hardware performance and strong overall security capabilities.
Cons
  • Frequent connectivity issues and unreliable app (no connection, delays, and inconsistent notifications).
  • Cumbersome app UX with too many screens, non-intuitive navigation, and limited playback features (calendar/timeline, delete video).
  • Hardware durability concerns (power cords/wiring wear out after a few years).
  • Motion detection and recording reliability problems (false positives, offline cameras, missed recordings).

I recently had to replace my defective 1 year-old night owl HD system with the new one. The system itself works great, but the app needs a significant amount of work. First off it does not rotate when the phone or iPad rotates to landscape, no matter what screen you’re on. Also, with the old app, I was able to swipe to the left or right, and move to the next camera, that does not work with the new app. I have eight cameras around my house so being able to just swipe between them to view the entire perimeter of my home is something that I would really like to have again.
